Razer's Project Fiona gaming tablet (+Tips of selling)

Razer's Project Fiona concept
gaming tablet, shown at CES 2012, suggests that Windows 8 is a serious player
in portable gaming, and that Razer is serious about moving into manufacturing
computers.

The
tablet is a concept. Razer says it's targeting a sub-$1,000 price tag when it
brings the final version to market, planned for the end of this year.

Fiona
looks to be the first true Windows 8 gaming tablet. For its specs, Razer
intends to use a third-generation (aka Ivy Bridge) Intel Core i7 CPU, along
with a solid-state drive (SSD). Razer reps here at CES 2012 were
circumspect when I asked about the graphics chip in Fiona. CEO Min-Liang Tan
said he wanted to highlight Ivy Bridge and Windows 8 gaming, although he at
least acknowledged the possibility of a discrete graphics chip from AMD or
Nvidia.

Razer had few other specifics available for
Fiona, understandable given that it's a concept. It has a 10.1-inch screen,
with 1,280x800-pixel resolution. Tan said the device will have battery life
akin to that of a laptop, not a tablet. It will also have force feedback and an
accelerometer built into the game pad handles.

He also said that it will come with a touch
screen, as well as an Android OS overlay. His goal for Fiona is
to offer sufficient horsepower for true PC gaming, as well as tabletlike
portability and ease of use. Tan would not confirm whether the game pad handles
are removable. If you've followed the genesis of Razer's Switchblade concept from CES 2011,
you'll know it evolved into a more familiar design as it became the Blade Laptop later
in the year. That product, Razer says, is out in the wild with friends and
family now, although it plans to begin taking orders this month.

Will Fiona evolve between now and launch? I
expect that it will. I also expect that when the Blade finally becomes
available for some hands-on time, we'll finally have an idea about how
seriously we should consider Razer in this area, as it evolves from a maker of
high-end mice and keyboards into a computer systems vendor.
